Yeah it's not a great shot, and his EYBL numbers back that up, albeit in a relatively isolated sample size. In 16 games on the main circuit, Jones was 31.2% (15/48) from behind the arc. Good news? Shooting can improve quickly if given proper instruction. Plus, Illinois seems to already have a...

He already has 5 if you include Mark Alstork :thumb:

I know this doesn't exactly apply to Illinois anymore, but I'll share just because I've seen a few people talking about Mizzou/Courtney Ramey. My #source is very tied into Missouri recruiting and he recently talked with Ramey's HS head coach. At this point in time, that coach doesn't envision...

Nolley's "Championship Round" gets announced at 8:00am EST Friday. His college decision is at 8:00pm EST Saturday.

That same 59.16 figure would eventually settle in the 18-25 range once all the uncommitted players pick a school. The "we'd be the No. 1 class" comment is absolutely hyperbole, but a lot of players make similar statements so it's whatever. If anything, the comment is important because it...
